if this tool turns out easy to configure it would be great https://github.com/nektos/act

Does this issue require any code changes in this repository?

stan-dot commented 4 weeks ago

possibly, many tools allow for custom configuration with a config file. otherwise adding a line to install the tool into .devcontainer might be pursued

not sure what ask this question now @callumforrester

it's an implementation detail - the issue is about the dev hours cost-benefit analysis - if we invest a a chunk of time now, what would be the future time saving stream of benefits (and possibly a stream of costs to keep it)

callumforrester commented 4 weeks ago

Okay, well since you raised the issue, please could you outline the pros and cons (i.e. more detail than the current PR description). Otherwise I will close it.

stan-dot commented 4 weeks ago

the issue IS to gather those pros and cons. this is not a PR, this is just a vague issue chucked into the backlog, to be considered on a per-sprint basis
